Prosecutors declined to file charges at the time, and Constand, then an employee at Temple University, filed a civil suit against Cosby. That suit was settled out of court.

Other accusers stood outside court Tuesday, waiting for the jury to reach a verdict.

Victoria Valentino, a former Playboy bunny who says Cosby drugged and raped her 1965, said she would be thrilled with a conviction.

"We'll be dancing. Woo hoo!" she said. Cosby has denied all accusations against him.

In closing arguments Monday, Cosby’s attorneys portrayed him as a man about town, but not a criminal. The prosecution painted him as a star who used his celebrity power to intimidate and assault young women.

Defense lawyer Brian McMonagle told the court Cosby and Constand had a consensual sexual relationship and appeared to scold his client.
